Kendo UI Mobile + MVC 3/4 + Monotouch Native "Wrapper"

Hi Guys,

Do you have a deadline for when the Kendo UI Mobile (and Web for that matter) will be available for ASP.NET MVC 3/4 ?

What license should I buy to support this effort and be sure to receive the builds when they are done?

I'm normally developing business apps with monotouch but the pace of (especially UI) development is to slow. So I would like to employ this principle and make a monotouch native app that really only serves as a UIWebView wrapper for a particular site made with Kendu UI Mobile and ASP.NET MVC. This wrapper will have a list of services that the web app can call, like camera, geo location, contacts, etc. You know all native stuff that web apps traditionally cannot get at.

The best part is that I would not need to resubmit my apps to the appstore to change views, forms or the like.

So. I need Kendo UI Mobile in ASP.NET MVC clothing. When can I have it? :)

Problem with XML dataSource and inline editing

I have a DataSource object that uses a schema model to extract the pertinent info out of an XML document:

var dataSource1 = new kendo.data.DataSource ({

transport: {

read:

{ cache: false, url: crud, data: { action: 'list' }, error: successCheck },

update:

{ cache: false, url: crud, data: { action: 'update' }, success: successCheck },

destroy:

{ cache: false, url: crud, data: { action: 'delete' }, success: successCheck },

create:

{ cache: false, url: crud, data: { action: 'create' }, success: successCheck }

},

schema: {

type: 'xml',

data: '/TABLE/THINGS',

model: {

id: "thingid",

fields: {

thingid: { editable:false, field: "id/text()" },

name: { editable:true, field: "name/text()" },

timestamp: { editable:false, field: "timestamp/text()" }

}

The grid is

$("#thingList").kendoGrid({

dataSource: dataSource1,

pageable: true,

toolbar: [

{ name:"create", text:"New Thing", id:"add"}],

columns: [

{ field: "name", title: "Name", template: "<a class='viewlink' href='viewthing?id=${thingid}'>${name}</a>" },

{ field: "timestamp", title: "Created", width: "12em" },

{ command: [ {name:"edit",text:"Rename"}, "destroy"], title:" ", width:"15.5em"} ],

editable: "inline"

});

When I click on "New Thing" a new empty row does not appear in the table, and the html developer console shows
Uncaught ReferenceError: timestamp is not defined

The apparent issue is that kendo.data.xml loads up data records with this statement
record[field] = modelInstance._parse(field, model.fields[field].field(value));
In other words, the field property of a models fields is expected to be a function

and when kendoGrid handles "New Thing" it calls addRow which makes a default row via dataSource.insert, which in turn relies on a new instance of the xml reader model, which in turn relies on properly defined defaults.

Unfortunately the Model.define function uses the field property of a models fields as a key for associating with a default value

 name = field.field || name;

 if (!field.nullable) {

      value = proto.defaults[name] = field.defaultValue !== undefined ? field.defaultValue : defaultValues[type.toLowerCase()];

}

In the case of XML, name is an anonymous function because field.field is taking precedence over name.

A guess is that Model.define should contain this:
name = typeof(field.field)=='string' ? field.field : name;

how did it happened "Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'toJSON'"

I did this job follow the Thread : http://www.kendoui.com/forums/ui/grid/how-can-i-get-the-pure-json-data-of-the-selected-row.aspx
this is my code:

$("#synchronizationStart").click(function(){
var $row = $("#employee").data("kendoGrid").select();
var data = [];
for (var i = 0; i < $row.length; i++) {
data[i] = $("#employee").data("kendoGrid").dataItem($row[0]).toJSON();
alert(data[i]);
}
});
});
but it did't work in my project.
Here is the error in chrome's console:

Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'toJSON'
1. (anonymous function)showStaff:136
2. f.event.dispatchjquery-1.7.1.min.js:3
3. f.event.add.h.handle.i

so, what should i do ?
since my native language is not English, please forgive my grammar errors :)

[Solved] How can I apply styling to the grid control?

I'm evaluating the Kendo web controls before buying. Specifically, I need to be able to style the controls to match the controls in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011. I'm looking at the grid control, creating a grid from fixed data and generating the grid in place of an empty grid, as per the example code.

I'm trying to work out how I can change the grid styling and I can't seem to get anything to work so I'm after pointers. I need to change things like the background colour of rows, row borders, row height, fonts used, etc. I need to understand how to change the styles independantly for normal rows, selected cells, cells being edited, etc. Can someone give me a starting point?

NB: I'm pretty new to jQuery, being historically a .NET developer using ASP.NET web forms, but at the point of making a switch to using much more HTML / jQuery to meet the new development models in CRM.

Clear a datagrid?

Is there an easy way to clear everything inside of a datagrid? I could loop though each of the rows and call dataGrid.removeRow(aRow) but that seems overly complicated. There must be a simpler way?
